root@slack:/mnt/attache# mount -o loop /mnt/attache/slack13rails.img /mnt/attache/slack13
mount: Could not find any loop device. Maybe this kernel does not know
about the loop device? (If so, recompile or `modprobe loop’.)

also I have changed the .config file CONFIG_BLK_DEV_LOOP=y
and recompile the kernel

make
make modules
make modules_inatll
make install

But unble to mount the device.
Please help me.

MIKE

Dropping back to 8.04, which will be around for a very very long time to come, might just be the best plan for a machine that predates quad-core, 16Gb “family computers.” So long as the software is going to hog space and allow itself to become insufferably obese, then it makes sense to reach back to a time when there wasn’t as much space to work with. It’s either that, or build it yourself. […]

as a starting point. There are literally thousands of guides out there though, so don’t rely on that one only.

These are .configs stripped of all things unusable on normal desktop machines, just enable needed drivers and run it.

Attempting to make linux from scratch for a 486/75. No idea whats going to happen. I’ll be happy as long as I don’t destroy anything. Luckily got a nice 2.2ghz machine to compile on :)

I have an rt73usb wifi chipset and ever since kernel 2.6.32, it has not worked properly. Upon further research, power management issues and conflicts turned out to be the main cause. Personally I use the kernels from http://liquorix.net…all the goodness without the effort ;oD
